Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: RegEchse at none against Typepad Editor's shown. RegEchse also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 13 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Typepad Editor's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
